Movie Quotes Games 

Singing along to: Flogging Molly, Between A Man And A Woman

Stolen from The Caffeinated Librarian.

The Rules:
* Pick 15 of your favorite movies
* Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie (or quote them from memory because you are that bad ass)
* Post them on your blog for everyone to guess
* Fill in the film title once it’s been guessed

These are your rules:
* No Googling or using IMDb search functions (Don’t cheat!)
* Leave your answer(s) in the comments

The person who guesses the most movies gets... well, absolutely nothing, except for the satisfaction of knowing that A) you share my exceptionally fine taste in cinema and B) you have no life, possibly. And really, what prize could be better than knowing that?
